pinterest

So one of my dear friends sent me a request to join Pinterest. I had been delaying taking the jump into yet another 'social media' site, but her request came at a moment when I had nothing better to do.

Always have something better to do.

I can see why folks say it is addicting. What fun to look at gorgeous pictures of places, food, things and then pin them to these virtual boards you create. I have found some recipes I want to try, but better yet, my girls have found recipes they want to try creating and have requested kitchen time. Will wonders never cease. They might move beyond just making cookies or mac-n-cheese.

And Pinterest isn't just for the ladies, as evidenced by my favorite Texas blogger, Travis. He is now following me on Pinterest. By the way Travis, hope the hand heals up fast.....take it easy with the chainsaw, bud.

And speaking of nice photos...ever wonder where writers get their visual inspiration for characters? Check out Lisa's blog today. What a handsome fellow. I'm sure the seats in his classroom are always full of students.

Cheers!

Thanks for the shout out. I'm sure your female readers will want to drop by...... ;)

I've never heard of Pinterest. I'll have to go check it out.

Lisa, you are quite welcome. Fair warning...Pinterest can be a huge time-suck for some folks. Maybe you will be immune. I seem to have fallen victim to the variety of recipes on there.
